D'Youville lauded by military publication

D’Youville College ranked second in the country in business colleges serving veterans in a recently released Military Times survey.

No other Western New York college made the list. Park University in Missouri was the top-ranked college, while Florida State University in Tallahassee ranked third overall.

One hundred colleges and universities responded to the 60-question survey. To qualify, entities were required to offer graduate-level business degrees with rankings determined by accommodations and programs available for veterans, service members and their families, according to a D’Youville news release.

Military Times published the list in its March magazine and on its website. It took into account academic policies, financial aid, academic and career support, measures of academic success, selectivity and family considerations.

In 2010, D’Youville became the first local college to specifically recruit students who live on military bases in Germany. St. Bonaventure University started doing so in 2012.
